NCP activists burn the effigy of MNS chief Raj Thackeray.Thackeray, the Michael Corleone wannabe of Mumbai, who has a long beef with people from the northern states like Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Jharkhand, made the incendiary remark after Bihar Chief Secretary Navin Kumar wrote to the Mumbai Police Commissioner expressing his discontent over the arrest of a youth, Abdul Qadir Ansari from Sitamarhi district Bihar, who allegedly vandalized the Martyr's Memorial during a protest at Azad Maidan in Mumbai on August 11.

Meanwhile, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) activists in Patna on Sunday burnt the effigy of Raj Thackeray demanding his immediate arrest and charges of sedition and treason filed against him.

"Thackeray is a threat to national security and as such, must be dealt as the enemy of the state," said the NCP leaders in Patna.

"Thackeray’s remarks were anti-national, unconstitutional and totally uncalled for. People from Bihar are free to go wherever they want to and Raj Thackeray has no right to insult them in this manner," Nirupam said.
